Year 5 Scaling

Year 5 have been studying a topic called scaling in maths. Scaling is the ability to change the measurements in a recipe, for instance, to make more or less of something. This week we put our scaling knowledge to the test! We received a recipe for a traditional Irish cookie called 'Fifteens' and scaled it down to make either 5 or 10 cookies. As you can see from the pictures, we had a great time making these and got our hands very, very messy!
